Former Union minister P Chidambaram was arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation this evening after high drama outside his South Delhi home, complete with slogan-shouting supporters, police and unprecedented visuals of investigators scaling walls and roof to gain access inside. He has been taken to the CBI office for questioning.

The race started earlier this evening as the senior leader — sought by investigative agencies for nearly 24 hours in connection with a corruption case — appeared at the Congress headquarters.In his short address to the media, Mr Chidambaram pointed out that he has not been named an accused in the case. But he said he has faith in the law “even if it is applied by an unequal hand” by the investigative agencies.
